The Story Of Kingsley Michele Rucci e Viola Gentili 3B - Fellini

Through the "Progetto Finestre", promoted by Centro Astalli, we met a young man named Kingsley, born in Nigeria and albino. This caused a lot of problems in his life, because in his country albinos could be killed for different superstitions. This subsequently forced him to leave his country and move to Italy. When he arrived in Italy, the problems related to his skin color ended, but economic problems began and also the fact that he could see and hear loved ones only through his mobile phone. In conclusion, he escaped from certain death, but he found other difficulties waiting for him.

Thanks to this meeting we became even more aware of the fact that in some countries not everyone is free to be themselves and to live in peace in a democratic country like ours and it would be nice if it were like this everywhere.
